    The portions were huge so keep that in mind when ordering. But everything was delicious and the service was great.

    The service was friendly and efficient. Delicious food - we had the southern fried chicken burger and grilled chicken burger, with hot crisp fries. We will definitely be back!

    Service was very slow, and our waiter forgetful, even though it wasn’t busy. My partner and I had fajitas each, but they gave one bowl of sauces which wasn’t enough.

    The food was very good, I thought the service could have been better. We had to call the server 3 times to help us, he should have been checking if we were happy with everything regularly. Overall good experience and would definitely go back.

    The staff were extremely friendly and always around for a speedy service. The cocktails were lovely. We had fajitas and fish and chips and cheese bowls. The food was hot and delicious. I also love the playlist.

    Loved everything about our visit to Maxwells. Food was excellent and well presented. We sat in a booth, everywhere was clean. Restaurant had plenty of space with high ceilings and tables weee not crammed in. Staff were friendly and attentive. We had a fabulous pudding with a sparkler in for a birthday and the staff sang happy birthday. We will definitely be returning.

    I was expecting a decent food while the stake was half cooked and the other half medium and some part Medium rare as requested and was very fat. The presentation was also underwhelming and the service was ok. I am not sure who has given a score of 9.2 .... for sure we had different standard about service, presentation and food.

    Fantastic food, but the service really deserves a special shout out. all the staff were super nice and accommodating. the only downside is the music which is way too loud.

    Indulgent chocolate milkshake topped with whipped cream, crushed Oreo cookies, and drizzled chocolate sauce, served in a mason jar with two straws for sharing.

    It’s our fourth time visiting but our first time using the fork.It was really straight forward and the children loved the desserts.The kids meal is a good size portion and the smash burgers was a big hit.The cocktails are the best at Maxwells

    Succulent ribs glazed with a sweet and smoky sauce, garnished with fresh herbs, served with crispy fries and creamy coleslaw.
    Grilled chicken glazed with a rich sauce, served with fluffy rice, crispy fried potatoes, and fresh arugula.
    A crumbly crust filled with rich dark berry compote, topped with powdered sugar and fresh basil, surrounded by a drizzle of berry sauce.

    Lovely time with friends in an upbeat atmosphere with classic American food at a good price.

    Food was average, without the fork 50% off it would be very overpriced and not worth it but with 50% it’s worth a try. I feel like it’s one of those places you try once and never return.

    I Ordered the Bean chilli. It was more like a tomoato sauce with some beans rather than a bean dish. The rest was decent but not amazing.

    Cozy restaurant interior with exposed stone walls, dark leather booths, soft lighting, and a nostalgic neon sign, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
    Grilled chicken breast on arugula, garnished with lemon, served with roasted potato chunks and a savory sauce.
    Rich chocolate brownie topped with creamy vanilla ice cream, drizzled with chocolate sauce, garnished with a crispy strawberry chip and mint-green chocolate discs.

    Grilled steak with a smoky flavor, featuring a juicy, tender center and garnished with fresh thyme, served with a savory sauce.
    A hearty platter featuring large, meaty lamb chops in a rich sauce, tender glazed chicken, traditional golden fries, sweet potato fries, and a small bowl of creamy coleslaw.
    The exterior of Maxwell's features a glowing neon sign, warm lighting, and large windows that showcase a lively interior with modern and classic design elements.

    Maxwell grill was an amazing experience with outstanding service provided. We went with the meat sharing platter for two which consisted of a tomahawk steak, bbq wings, ribs and chips which was great value for money. We wanted to upgrade our fries to sweet potato and our server so kindly upgraded it for us with no issues or charge. Our server was very attentive and told us she only started 5 months ago. For someone with little experience at the establishment, she was amazing and I would highly recommend her. Unfortunately I didn’t catch her name as I would have gladly mentioned her in this review. Overall would most definitely come here again, even without the discount. 10/10

    The food was served quickly, the staff were friendly and the ambiance was nice. The food itself was not great however, and the burger was very overcooked.

    Good food and attentive service in an American themed interior. The booth tables are nice but the regular ones are a little tightly packed.

    Stylish restaurant interior featuring a modern classic design with polished floors, varied seating, a blue bar countertop, warm lighting, and elegant decorative accents.
    Grilled meat with a savory glaze, garnished for tenderness, served with crispy fries, a fresh salad, and a dipping sauce.

    unfortunately I forgot the women's name but she was absolutely lovely. I came with my friend for his birthday it was a late dinner as we just lost track of time. Regardless, the food was amazing she gave us a cake. will definitely come back!!
